Morphology

evergreen = ever + green (semi-transparent) = ever + green

The compound is used metaphorically (from 'always green' to 'always relevant'); the link to the literal sense is clear but involves a figurative extension.

Etymology

Evergreen is also used for articles and videos and comes from ever 'always' and green 'fresh', so an evergreen piece stays useful and 'fresh' for a long time, like a tree that never loses its leaves.
